Multnomah

The Multnomah is now blocked and ready to be wrapped. This was a really fun knit. Feather and Fan is easy peasy but you still get a fair amount of bang for your buck.














It's the only holiday gift I knit this year. I have one other hand knit gift, but I made it awhile back so it doesn't count.

I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of the holiday knitting. I've spent one too many Christmas Eves doing the math of "If there are X rows/inch and I can do Y rows/hour, I can be finished Z hours AFTER the last FedEx pick up". Too much pressure for this old gal.















We're flying out tomorrow to spend the holiday with my mother. I still haven't picked my travel project. Maybe Citrus? I've really enjoyed the small shawls I've done recently. Should I go for one more?

There are also a couple of sock patterns I'm considering. I just received a batch of yarn that I need to test to see if it's something Lorna's Laces wants to add to the line.

Then there's a sweater WIP that I should get busy on. The thing is, I'm just not feeling the love there. The lack of love is so severe that I'm considering frogging the whole thing. I have never done that before.

They've canceled over 250 flights out of Chicago today....please keep your fingers crossed that the weather will clear up so we can go.
